Uplifting New Year for Drive Lines


D


rive Lines Technologies Ltd announce the launch of the Lift System Solutions flyer.


The flyer


demonstrates the complete range of products Drive Lines offers for these applications including Screw Jacks, Couplings, Line Shafts, Control Systems, Linear Guidance, Gearboxes and Motors.


application specific brochure from Drive Lines.


This is the first Ian


Carr, General Manager says ‘We want to demonstrate how Drive Lines can offer the complete solution. We have a vast choice of products and some respected brands and together with our engineer’s knowledge and skills we can assist in all aspects of mechanical lifting systems.’ Drive Lines are also offering product awareness days for 2013. We set up a stand at your work place free of charge allowing staff to view our products, look at some case studies and talk through projects with our engineers.

GESIPA®


ESIPA®’s pneumatic hydraulic riveting tool, Taurus series, is well known to the fastener industry due to its technical peculiarity of saving up to 68% of the compressed air by its dual use.

Recently, these Taurus Tools were introduced by GESIPA® with a process control mechanism. Explaining the process control mechanism, Stuart Booth, Technical Lead, commented: “Contained within these special Taurus tools, are sensing & processing capabilities that analyses each rivet set, via a real time analysis of traction and stroke during the riveting operation. An immediate feedback is provided to the operator via Green and Red LED’s located on the tool to confirm good or bad rivet setting. Rivets that fail to set according to defined parameters are detected and reported.”


In addition to that, multiple job profiles stored in a computer can be quickly down-loaded into the tool’s memory, programming it for varying applications. The tool’s internal memory stores data on up to 260,000 rivet sets. The output data can be transmitted in real-time to collection devices, audible/visual signal systems and electronic controllers or downloaded at intervals to provide analysis of the riveting process. The system also identifies failure patterns and memorizes those for failure analysis and troubleshooting.


Considering all the work that is done by these special


Taurus tools, it is notable that all the system components involved are part of the tool itself and each analysis takes less than a microsecond. Moreover,


all


measurement parameters and riveting sequences can be adjusted with special software.

New spot facing kits


reduce accelerometer fitting times


ansford Sensors has launched its latest spot facing installation kits, which have been introduced to help maintenance and production engineers reduce the time required for the fitting of accelerometers in a wide range of industrial applications.


The latest accelerometer installation


kits feature a new design of spot facing tool, with a high-wear tungsten tip, which extends operating life still further, while enhancing the precision with which each sensor can be fitted.


The kit also includes


tapping drill, taps and tap wrench, providing everything that engineers need to prepare the surface of the equipment to be monitored, form the appropriate mounting hole and install the sensor to ensure that subsequent output readings are accurate, consistent and repeatable. Each kit is supplied in a robust carrying case and is available with a choice of tools for ¼, M6 and M8 mounting threads.

n customer request, PATLITE now offers its successful CLA series LED work lights with protection type IP 54 and therefore at a lower price. With protection type IP 69K the Ecolab- certified CLA work light is predestined for installation in high-purity and hygienic areas, for example in the food and beverage as well as pharmaceutical and semiconductor industries. However, some applications in these and other sectors require the excellent illumination of a CLA light, although the requirements for the protection type are considerably lower. For such applications Patlite now offers the lower priced CLA work light with protection class 54. Aside from the lower protection type, the new CLA version has the same features as the IP69K version.


CLA – the cost-effective, industrial quality alternative to fluorescent tubes O


Long-lasting, eco-friendly and silent The smooth housing is made of high-strength polycarbonate. The special translucent material provides for even distribution of the light, which is emitted at an angle of 120°, and produces a natural light that is neither too dim nor too bright. Equipped with mercury-free high-performance LEDs, the CLA light bars give off hardly any heat. They generate about 34 percent less heat than conventional fluorescent tubes. With a life of more than 40,000 hours the CLA lights are superior tenfold to existing fluorescent tubes and therefore significantly increase machine availability. Efficiency also plays a major role here: the low power dissipation of the CLAs reduces the energy consumption by more than half compared with a 20 W fluorescent lamp and the carbon dioxide levels are also cut in half. The use of 24 V DC power eliminates the typical annoying humming sound of fluorescent tubes – the CLA lights are absolutely silent, which greatly improves the work environment. The CLA series LED lights withstand temperatures between -40 and +60°C – yet another advantage over conventional fluorescent tubes.


The low-priced, mercury-free LED light bars of the CLA series in the colour “Daylight” are available in the lengths 300 and 600 millimetres with mounts for many different applications.
